Vigorous choreography around the featured dancer, French centrifolia rose. This clear and honeyed rose is given spice with saffron and oomph with oud, resulting in a compelling contrast between delicacy and strength. Beautifully diffusive and long-lasting, this is a bright and deep rose/leather that brings pleasure to all within smelling distance.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of someone arriving with ease but not softness: a polished, close-range presence that reads as modern, sensual and a little defiant. It suits intimate rooms, crowded sidewalks and any setting where a rose needs to feel less decorative and more charged.
How to wear
Best in cool to mild weather, where its rose, saffron and oud can project without turning heavy. One to three sprays is enough, as the diffusion is strong and the longevity above average; on skin it opens bright and spicy, then settles into a leathery, woody trail that holds well in air.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like rose with tension: floral but not pretty, sensual but not syrupy, and modern enough to welcome leather, oud and an unexpected synthetic accent. It will appeal to people drawn to statement roses, woody florals and fragrances with a fashion-forward edge.

The nose
Karine Vinchon-Spehner is a French perfumer known for compositions that feel polished yet tactile, often balancing natural materials with an unexpected modern twist. Her work here turns a playful sneaker accord into a structured rose fragrance, keeping the floral heart luminous while giving it a strong, woody-leathery frame. She is associated with Robertet and a style that values clarity, texture and material quality. In Au Pied du Rosier, that approach is especially visible in the way she tempers the rubbery, streetwear-inspired idea with honeyed rose, saffron and a deep base, creating a fragrance that feels both inventive and composed.
Collaborators
Georges Maubert, Marie Jeanne’s founder, shaped the concept with artist Dai Dai Tran, bringing the sneaker-and-rose idea to life as a meeting point between Grasse perfumery and urban streetwear. Their creative brief gave Karine Vinchon-Spehner the contrast that defines the fragrance: fresh sneaker energy against a classic Centifolia rose.
Marie Jeanne’s story
Marie Jeanne is a Grasse-based house founded by Georges Maubert and rooted in a family perfumery tradition, but its identity is deliberately pared back and contemporary. The brand focuses on elegant, stripped-down compositions made with natural, cruelty-free materials, often letting a single idea or material tension carry the whole fragrance.
Au Pied du Rosier’s concept
Au Pied du Rosier was conceived around the sensation of opening a fresh pair of sneakers, then pairing that modern, rubbery impression with Centifolia rose from Grasse. The result is a fragrance built on contrast: rose, saffron and oud create a bright but deep floral-leather composition that feels both playful and unexpectedly serious.
Extra info
The name means “At the foot of the rose,” a fitting nod to the fragrance’s rose-centered construction. Its signature twist is the new-sneaker accord, an unusual idea that gives the perfume its urban character and sets it apart from more traditional rose compositions.
